I think he would really like FC and would like to send him a hard drive with already

Didn't Intel call the "586" processor family "Pentium" because
they
couldn't trademark numbers?
That's my understanding. But AMD produced a processor called
the 586, which is a 486 class processor.
(my point being how can a "Pentium" also be
"486"?)
AIUI, it cannot.
